无法在 php codeigniter 中设置初始页面

Question

I'm new in php codeigniter, i need to modify a project but i cant set the base url it redirects me to an external url and i can't edit anything in the project.

for example if I enter the project path, it redirects me to 'https://test.com'

I set the base url in application/config to localhost. But it does not work. this is my base url

$config['base_url'] = 'localhost/';

I have no idea what else could cause this problem I am very frustrated

Any idea or solution will be aprecciated.

Have a good day

Answer 1

I'm guessing, when you try the below you always get the value https://test.com ? You can search the project folder for that value if it is being overriden somewhere.

<?php echo base_url(); ?>

Answer 2

try check the .htaccess file under your codeigniter file project maybe your .htaccess set the url like this:

RewriteRule ^(.*)$ https://test.com/$1 [R,L]

change it to

RewriteRule ^(.*)$ https://localhost/yourfilename/$1 [R,L]
